DMC3 was riding of the terrible name DMC2 gave the series.

DmC was riding off the almost 2mil+ mil success that was DMC4 and still took months to reach 1 mil

that means that dispite the big success that was behind DmC it still only sold more than DMC3 by the skin of its teeth. so dispite it selling more than DMC3 by technicality, its quite obvious the game wasnt really a success
